Starts fruiting young.
A compact pomegranate shrub with an unusually long and lovely season of blooms. Punica Crimson Sky™ Pomegranate comes to us from Ukraine and is predictably cold-hardy. The large red blooms begin in early summer and continue for months, while the orange-red fruit ripens in late autumn and is heavily borne.
Just 5 to 6 feet high and 4 to 5 feet wide, Punica Crimson Sky™ Pomegranate offers glossy green foliage right down to the ground. You can grow it in a containerand because it's self-fertile, you don't need a second shrub for cross pollination. Low maintenance, beautiful, and delicious, Punica Crimson Sky™ Pomegranate should be at the top of your list for "must haves" this season.
